President's Message
Happy New Year! I hope everyone had an enjoyable holiday season. I first want to say thank you to our outgoing 2024 Board of Directors for the fantastic job they did in 2024; and secondly, welcome our 2025 Board of Directors. I am looking forward to great things in 2025! I also want to give a special thank our associate members; without your support, we would not be able to accomplish everything that we do as an organization.
I would like to establish a theme (and no, this isn’t “A Christmas Story” – you don’t have to write a paper!) for the coming year. As I have commiserated with my property manager colleagues, our jobs have changed significantly over the years. Not just from the perspective of an expected higher level of knowledge and professionalism, but how we deal with people has undergone an almost monumental change. One of my goals for 2025 is to determine ways that BOMA can help you navigate the everyday issues that come up with your job, and how we can support you in ways for you to be able to do your job better.
I believe that I would not have been able to meet my career goals over the years without the support and knowledge that BOMA supplies. This is not just from a local BOMA perspective, but from a regional and national perspective as well. I want to be sure that we are providing you with the information and opportunities our great organization can provide; and the goal is to provide you with the tools to make your job easier.
It’s the start of the new year, and new opportunities. I encourage you to get involved; and there will be many areas where you can do that this year.
I am looking forward to serving as your president this year and look forward to making it a great year for everyone.
Eileen Lewis, Torch Properties
President, BOMA GT
